I recently got a Synology NAS and I am trying to setup Emby. I wanna host a media server however, I wanna be able to access the emby location from anywhere and let say my mom access it. Just I wanna keep it secure. Should I use cloudflare?

    I believe media hosting is only against their ToS if you try and use the proxy service. In the DNS page you would want to make sure the clouds are not orange. Fair warning though now your IP is exposed to the public.

      I use their tunnels in conjunction with internal split horizon DNS so I don’t have to forward any ports and can access things locally faster so I’m probably breaking this rule but I haven’t gotten any emails or letters about it yet. Crossing my fingers they don’t care lol
